ABSTRACT
Pregnancy-related deaths affect African American women at a rate four to five times higher than White women. These deaths occur during pregnancy or up to 1 year after childbirth. Inadequate or delayed prenatal care is a factor associated with poor maternal health outcomes in African American women. Identifying factors that pose as facilitators and barriers to prenatal care is essential in developing interventions aimed at improving maternal health outcomes.
